The larger angle is 70 degrees.

Explicação

## Step 1Let's denote the larger angle as and the smaller angle as . According to the problem, the larger angle is 30 degrees more than twice the smaller angle. This can be written as the equation:### ## Step 2We also know that the sum of complementary angles is 90 degrees. Therefore, we can write another equation:### ## Step 3Now we have a system of two equations, which we can solve to find the values of and .## Step 4Substitute the first equation into the second equation:### ## Step 5Combine like terms:### ## Step 6Subtract 30 from both sides:### ## Step 7Divide both sides by 3:### ## Step 8Substitute into the first equation:###
